Unlocking hidden potential: Refugees in Danish workplaces
In this talk, you will get a research‑based look at how refugees contribute to Danish workplaces, why firms benefit from hiring them, and how managers can ensure refugees’ successful integration.
New research based on Danish data reveals a surprising insight: when refugees are hired under fair and legal conditions, they can strengthen the performance of the firms that employ them.
Participants will learn:
- Why refugees face unique labor‑market barriers — and how these shape their work experiences
- How hiring refugees can benefit firms, not only socially but economically
- What organizational practices and managerial backgrounds help ensure fairer wages and better integration
- What policymakers, employers, and civil society can do to unlock the full potential of refugee talent
This lecture shares evidence‑based insights from two large‑scale studies following thousands of refugees and firms in Denmark over 15 years. It is designed for a broad audience such as citizens, HR professionals, NGOs and others interested in a more inclusive and productive labor market.
